Answer to Question 1

It is equal to the pounds of water circulated multiplied by the cooling range.

Answer to Question 2

Blow down is the continuous or intermittent draining of a small fraction of circulating water to prevent the buildup and concentration of scale forming minerals and other nonvolatile impurities in the water.
